Riding Position and ischial variation:
Guide
1/2
Select your Riding Position:
What is riding position?

Riding position is the angle at which you hold your upper body when cycling, and it is the crucial factor in choosing an optimal saddle. According to your riding style, the way your sit bones rest on the saddle varies substantially, and this consequently affects the level of comfort.

Select your correct riding position from either 45° (Athletic), 60° (Moderate) or 90° (Relaxed) to enjoy your rides pain free!

Select your Ischial Variation:
What is ischial variation?

Ischial Variation is the measurement of distance between your sit bones. How to measure it: If you don’t have the possibility to go to a biomechanics expert or to a shop that has a sit bones measurement tool, you can easily simulate the procedure at home using corrugated cardboard or another moldable material on a flat surface.

Sit at 90° and apply pressure

Find the centres of the two ischial impressions and measure the distance between these two points with a ruler. The result is your ischial distance.

Tailor-made saddle for cyclists in the Relaxed riding position where the distance between the ischial bones is between 11 and 13 centimeters. Advanced 3D Skingel technology and Central Reservoir relieve pressure, while pedaling comfort is facilitated by the exclusive Curva Suspension system.

3D SKINGEL

Royalgel™ is placed strategically at critical contact points with the rider’s body to reduce pressure and ensure comfort even for longer rides.

CENTRAL RESERVOIR

An indentation along the center of the saddle, specifically designed to provide the best pressure relief in the perineal area.

REAR PLATEAU

A radius-specific design to provide optimum comfort for different spine angles. The more inclined the riding position, the smaller the edge-radius.

BODY CONTOUR

An elevated rear section to protect the rider from sliding backwards, specifically designed to decrease pressure in the middle of the saddle.
